ACTS 17:15 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“And they that conducted Paul brought him unto Athens: and receiving a commandment unto Silas and Timotheus for to come to him with all speed, they departed.”
Those who escorted Paul brought him to Athens and left with instructions for Silas and Timothy to join him as soon as possible — The explicit mention of Athens marks the narrative's pivot toward Paul's most celebrated speech. Athens, seat of classical philosophy and the Academy, represents Hellenistic intellectual culture at its apex.
